At close to midnight, Ji s.h.i.+ting finished his work and returned back to the master bedroom.

The first thing she saw was the woman sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed. She was holding something in her arms, and her head was lowered. He didn't know what she was doing.

Ji s.h.i.+ting lips curled upward.

At least she wasn't dumb enough to return to her own room.

He walked over and lifted her chin, but then, he felt a weight on his arm. She had now leaned her head against his arm. Seems like she was asleep. At that moment, the photo frame she was holding fell onto her legs, and Ji s.h.i.+ting noticed it.

The man's pupils contracted as he looked at the photo frame.

Sister Xiu had probably gotten it from his grandpa. He hadn't never noticed it before, and that woman had found it.

His Adam's apple bobbed up. He was caught off guard by the sudden tenderness.

Ji s.h.i.+ting couldn't help groan and poked her face.

Ye Shengge was startled awake.

“Ah…” She rubbed her eyes and said in a dry, raspy voice, “Have you finished your work?”

“Mm.” Ji s.h.i.+ting showed her the photo frame. “Where did you find it?”

Ye Shengge looked at the photo frame and said, “I'm just curious about the duobaoge.”

“Curious about?” he asked indifferently.

Ye Shengge didn't know whether it was her imagination, but she could hear gentleness in his cold voice.

“Curious about you…” Her eyes glinted. “I want to know you a little more.”

Ji s.h.i.+ting's dark eyes seemed to burn as he stared at her face.

She had already removed her makeup, and her face looked like a lotus on still water. She looked shy, which made her birthmark seem even more seductive.

The man's breathing got heavier. He held her face and kissed her.

Ye Shengge s.h.i.+vered, but she didn't dodge. She wrapped her arms around his neck and let him do whatever he wanted.

What surprised her was that the kiss wasn't intense at all. He moved slowly and meticulously, making it difficult for Ye Shengge to resist him. Before long, her face turned red, and her eyes turned misty.

Ji s.h.i.+ting took a deep breath and let her go. His deep breathing showed his desire.

Ye Shengge was looking forward to it, but also nervous.

Want to… do it?

“You want it?” The man seemed to read her mind, and his deep voice contained a hint of mocking.

“No, I didn't.” She denied it subconsciously. Then, she summoned her courage and said, “I'm not seducing you.”

“Really? Then why are you sitting here waiting for me and not returning to your room?” He raised his eyebrows.

“I wasn't waiting for you.” Ye Shengge puffed her cheeks and said. “I'll return back now.”

“What do you mean?” Ji s.h.i.+ting sneered and scooped her up. “Move your stuff here tomorrow.”

Ye Shengge was stunned. And then, she was put on the bed.

“Are you serious? I'll move my stuff here tomorrow then.” She couldn't believe it and asked again.

Ji s.h.i.+ting pinched her cheek. “I don't want to repeat myself.”

“Okay.” She smiled.

Ji s.h.i.+ting gazed at her smiling face and gulped again.

He didn't have the intention of touching her but when facing this woman, he always seemed to have the urge to do so.
